Watch the video to hear Roger Kitchen, MD of Weta Marine, explain how the Weta was designed to make sailing fun, fast and easy.

Family Friendly​Unlike other beach dinghies, the Weta is a boat the entire family can enjoy because it's so stable. Sail together using the comfortable wide trampoline area. Use it to teach and involve the kids in sailing, Or go for a burn on your own. You can do it all with a Weta which provides high performance without fear of capsize.

Senior FriendlyWhy should kids have all the fun?In most dinghies you quickly get tired when the wind gets up, but the Weta is lightweight, comfortable, safe and easy to sail - whatever your ability or mobility. But it's still fast enough to be exciting.It has been approved for the World Masters Games and Paralympics - and masters Weta owners have even completed marathon events over 300 miles (650 Kms).

Compact storageThe Weta packs down to the footprint of a Laser (4.4m x 1.7m) on its custom fit, lightweight beach trolley. So it's easy to keep in your garage or the boat park​. And its' light weight means it can easily be towed by a family car.

Quick & Easy SetupLightweight and simple - rig and launch by yourself in 15 minutes without effort. It comes with everything you need including the launch trolley. The colour co-ordinated ropes and sails make rigging quick and easy.

One Design Class The Weta has an active base of racing fleets around Australia and across the world for both solo and two-crew racing. And unlike many dinghies, it's a one-design boat made with modern, robust components and sails - so there's no need to keep spending a fortune each season to keep up.

Professional quality manufacturingUnlike plastic beach dinghies, the Weta is hand-crafted using the latest lightweight foam core materials to create a precision fit, and uses carbon fibre for strength and durability for the mast, rudder, daggerboard, float arms and bowsprit. Manufacturer, Xtreme Sailing Products, is one of the top 3 sailing dinghy manufacturers worldwide.

Speed when you need itThe furling gennaker is the Weta's secret weapon: Unfurl it for downwind speed up to 20 knots but then quickly furl it for control in the gusts. Or use it in light winds as a "Code Zero" genoa - so you can keep moving when other boats are stationary.

Custom ColoursStandard colours are light grey, white, blue, orange and yellow but if you want to stand out from the crowd, any colour is available from the Nuplex gelcoat range.

Sails for every wind strengthRedesigned by North Sails in 2017, the bi-radial cut mainsails provide manageable high performance in all conditions. The Standard 8.3 Sail is great for beginners or strong winds. The Square Top 9.3 Sail gives more speed in light winds and effortless power up to 20 knots. A larger gennaker, furling jib and smaller mainsail are available for even more flexibility.

The best equipmentWeta only uses parts from leading marine manufacturers such as North Sails, Ronstan, Harken, Liros Ropes and Kilwell Fibretube
